A preliminary investigation has found no signs of foul play in the death of a man whose body was found partially submerged in a pond on private property in western Boulder County on Friday night, officials said today.

While detectives have not found any signs of foul play, the investigation is still ongoing, according to Cmdr. Rick Brough with the Boulder County Sheriff's Office.

The Boulder County Coroner's Office will make a final ruling on cause and manner of death after an autopsy is performed and the investigation completed.

Officials have made a "preliminary identification" of the victim, but the coroner's office has not yet released the identity of the man.

The body was reported by a resident around 8:30 p.m. Friday in the area of 2200 County Road 103, according to sheriff's dispatchers, about four miles north of Nederland, off the Peak to Peak Highway.
